2013 highlights

Here are some of my favorite artistic highlights of 2013. First is this painting I did for a fundraiser for our library. It was a commissioned piece and it took about a year to complete!

Next is a few samples of the new Steampunk jewelry I made this year. I had so much fun coming up with new and creative ways to put my "junk" into a new piece of art.

This was at an annual fundraiser for our local art center. I really enjoy going to different events and talking to people about whatever I am working on at the time.

Another fun project I get to do every year is our high school one-act play production. I help with the makeup and I have so much fun working with the kids.

This year I had one of my Steampunk necklaces go to the State art competition and I got an honorable mention! Its a very tough competition so to get anything is awesome!

And my best highlight of 2013 is my first grand-baby Kalie! She is the cutest baby ever as you can see and she has grandma wrapped around her finger. 2014 should be a great year and I look forward to showing off my newest art projects!
